This is a high-protein, low fat, no sugar recipe for a smoothie drink that will knock your socks off! It's a great meal replacer, as it packs a bunch of nutrients and vitamins in it, naturally and makes you feel quite full. It's also for those of us who have sweet-tooths (sugar addiction by any other name would taste as sweet?).
Dr. Norris Chumley's Dream Smoothie
1 cup (8 oz.) non-fat milk, or natural (no sugar) fruit juice
1 scoop ( 2 tablespoons) protein powder (preferably whey, with no added sugar)
4 ice cubes
1 banana (or other fresh fruit of your choice - try strawberries, or papaya, or mango)
put all ingredients together in a blender, and mix at medium speed for about 1 minute (be sure to put the lid on before you press the start button!)
Would love to hear YOUR ideas for smoothies, too. Please comment below.

I love this smoothie. I like adding oats, flaxseeds and sometimes strawberries and blueberries to the banana. yummie!!!! Drinking this shake in the morning takes me clear up to lunch without feeling hungry.
God Bless.
This is a great, easy and delicious recipe! Thanks for sharing... A trick I learned recently was to buy my fresh fruit, cut it up and put it in the freezer. This takes out the ice and allows for more goodness. :)
A really tasty recipe. As Francine has written, I also add strawberries or blueberries to the smoothie!
I make a very similar smoothie each morning only I use Soy Milk, add the flax seed oil, 1 tbsp.honey, and various frozen mixed berries instead of ice. It is delicious and filling
